Former Stanford and San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Jonathan Martin, charged with four felony counts of making criminal threats, has been released from custody with a GPS monitor, TMZ Sports reported.
Attorneys for Martin, who also played with the Miami Dolphins, appeared in Los Angeles County Superior Court recently to ask a judge for their client’s release.
The charges were related to a dark Instagram post which read, “When you’re a bully & a coward, your options are suicide, or revenge.” Included in the post were the Twitter handles of two former high school classmates of Martin, and two of his former Miami Dolphins teammates.
